But my womb was bellowing

A blazing red harsh head tear up
And the dear floods of his hair.”

“You know, whenever women make imaginary female kingdoms in literature, they are always very permissive, to use the jargon word, and easy and generous and self-indulgent, like the relationships between women when there are no men around. They make each other presents, and they have little feasts, and nobody punishes anyone else. This is the female way of going along when there are no men about or when men are not in the ascendant.”
—Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
“Those who guard their mouths preserve their lives; those who open wide their lips come to ruin.”
